Hi! I just wanted to start off by saying thank you. I was astounded by the support you guys have given me and this story. I didn't think that my story would be that interesting but by the amount of visitors and views for Mon-El vs. Earth, you have shown me otherwise. I'm sorry that it took me so long to write this chapter, I had a lot go homework that needed to be done, along with my part-time job so I haven't had much time to write. I don't want to keep you much longer, so it is my honour to give you the third chapter of Mon-El vs. Earth, based on 'Crossfire' (S2xE05).


****I DONT OWN ANYTHING. ALL CHARACTERS, DIALOGUE, CREDITS AND BASICALLY EVERYTHING BELONG TO THE CW AND THE WRITERS OF SUPERGIRL****


Chapter 3: Crossfire / Crossfire for Kara 2.0

After Kara released Mon-El into her custody, Mon-El slept on the thought that she would be his new mentor. He looked forward to learning more about Earth but more so experiencing it. But Mon-El trusted that Kara would do everything in her power, which was a lot, to help him build a life on Earth.

Mon-El lay in his moderately comfortable bed when Kara, or someone who looked a lot like the Kryptonian, erupted through the door

"It's your first day of work!" she said excitedly

"No" the Daxamite said, waking up

"Yes!" Kara said before pulling Mon-El out of his bed and dragging him to her apartment.

They spent quite some time getting him ready. Kara even gave him a hair cut, using her heat vision, but a hair cut nonetheless.

"Do you want pancakes?"

"What are pancakes?"

"You don't know what pancakes are? Oh, today's your lucky day because you are going to finally have the best breakfast food ever."

"Alright then"

Kara spent the next several minutes in the kitchen, which was a term Earth used for a place where someone made food. Something delicious was being cooked the smell wafted through the small, cozy apartment. Once she was done, she placed a stack of flat brown cakes on a plate.

"Thank you" Mon-El said before digging in, taking the whole stack in his hand and shoving it into his mouth.

"Do you want syrup?..." Kara said turning around but saw the Daxamite hungrily eating the pancakes and the question was answered

"Wow these are really good!" Mon-El muffled through his full mouth, pancake bits falling out of his mouth and onto the plate.

"I'm glad you like them" Kara replied

I have to learn how to make these 'pancakes'

Soon after eating they went on to find the perfect outfit for him. Kara had given him several shirts to try on, some broke when he put them on because they were too tight, and some of them hung off of him like a large man dress. Honestly, Mon-El didn't see the reason behind the wardrobe change but Kara was his mentor and Mon-El trusted that she know what she was doing, even if he didn't like the idea of changing. They had run out of options and this outfit was the last they had. Mon-El walked out of the bathroom wearing a blue checkered shirt, a bowtie and a light brown vest with some comfortable black pants.

"How is it?" he asked Kara while looking at the outfit himself.

Her face had given it away completely, with her mouth hanging open in joy and excitement.

"It fits! That's perfect!" she exclaimed

"Yeah?"

"Yes, now you just need glasses"

"No, uh, I have got that covered, thank you" the Daxamite replied, placing a pair of pretty sweet sunglasses on his face

"No, no, no, no. Like real glasses, like mine. Well they're not real. But they keep it so that no one knows that I'm Supergirl."

"I'm pretty sure no one's gonna mistake me for Supergirl" Mon-El joked

"No, no, but maybe someday you will want to help people they way I do." Kara said as she retreated to the dresser behind her "In which case, these will come in handy. So no one know's Mon-El is Mike" she said returning to her previous place holding a plastic card

"And who's Mike?"

"You are, Mike Matthews" she answered "Uh, Winn got you a birth certificate, social security card and everything" she said, handing the piece of small plastic to 'Mike'.

"Oh, 498003145" the Daxamite read off the card

"And oh... Oh, soon you will get your FICO score"

"Oh. I uh- I don't know what any of those words mean"

"It's okay. You'll learn it all working at Catco" Kara said

"Great. Thank you for helping me be more...human"

"Yeah. Mm-hmm" Kara said, holding up a pair of glasses, which Mon-El assumed were for him

"Alright" he replied as Kara placed the glasses on his face, retreating a few steps to get a good look at him

"Those definitely say 'Mike' to me"

"Really?"

"Yeah" she assured him as they headed out of her apartment and to Catco.

The two aliens walked, which discouraged Mon-El because he found it easier to just use his powers to get to his destination, but he listened to Kara. The Kryptonian pulled Mon-El into a small brown store with many tables and people drinking what seemed like hot beverages.

Is this some sort of workers bar?

"What is this place? I thought that we were going to Catco. From what Winn showed me, this certainly is not Catco" the Daxamite said

"No, this is a coffee shop" Kara replied

"Why are we here?"

"I thought that we could make a quick stop before heading to Catco, if that's alright with you"

"Absolutely, I'm supposed to follow you around. So wherever you are, I am"

"Great. I'm going to get something... I'll be back quickly. Just stay here please" Kara said as she backed into the crowd of people

"Will do" Mon-El replied

Several minutes later, Kara came back with a tray of large drinks, similar to the ones that the other humans in the 'coffee shop' were drinking.

"Here let me help you with that" Mon-El said as he took a tray out of Kara's already full hands

"Thank you" she said "We better get going if we don't want to be late"

"Yeah, of course" Mon-El replied as the two of them exited the coffee shop and began walking to Catco.


They had walked for several blocks, carrying the trays of coffee, until Kara stopped in front of a tall building, which seemed to be made entirely of windows and glass, that loomed over them and National City.

"Are we making another stop?"

"No" Kara said as she opened the large glass doors and stepped into the building "This is Catco"

"Wow. And I thought the DEO was big." Mon-El muttered as he examined the buildings main lobby.

"Oh you'll fit in perfectly. There's nothing to be worried about" Kara said as she led Mon-El to the elevator.

"Okay. So what are these for?" Mon-El asked, motioning to the trays of coffee

"So, when I first started working here, I found it helpful to bring coffee to the other assistants to make new friends." the Kryptonian said as they walked out of the elevator.

"Ah, bribery, got it. We have that on Daxam."

"No, it's not bribery... It's just niceness" Kara said as they walked into the office, greeting other employees with "Hi"'s and "Good morning", while they handed them cups of coffee.

Little blaring noises starting ringing throughout the room

Oh my god we're under attack!

"What... Wait, what are those alarms for?"

"No, no. They're not alarms, come here. That's a phone. You pick it up and you say 'Hello, this is Catco, how may I help you?'. Oh, you definitely want to give Eve Teschmacher a coffee. She is James' assistant, the big boss. Eve, have you met our new intern?" Kara said as she approached a cubicle, where a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes sat behind the desk.

She is certainly a babe. Mon-El thought as he extended his arm to give her the cup of coffee

"Uh thank you so much" the assistant said as she took the coffee

"Sure"

"What's your name?"

"Mike. Number 49800-"

"No, no, Mike. You don't need to give her your social security number." Kara interjected

"What?! So I memorized that fake ID for nothing?-"

"You mean your real ID?" Kara hastily corrected

"Yes..." Mon-El said, hoping that the mistake wasn't too heavily noted

Whoops... my bad

"Hi... Mike..." Mon-El said as the assistant and he shared an awkward moment of silence

"Oh, James. I want to introduce you to our new intern... Mike" Kara said as she turned to a tall black man who wore a huge smile on his face.

"Right... Mike. Welcome to Catco" the man said

"You're-you're the big boss?" Mon-El asked as he shook James' hand

"That I am" James answered

This guy? Really? He doesn't look mean or menacing at all

"Huh... Kinda expected someone a little more intimidating" the Daxamite said but immediately saw that the comment was no appreciated so he tried to cover it up with a small chuckle.

"Um. I had Miss Teschmacher put some reports on your desk that should be put in order and filed. So if you have any questions my doors are always open" James said

"Oh, thanks. And hey, sorry I ran out of bribery coffees" Mon-El said jokingly...ish

"That's okay I'm actually about to go get one myself. So..." James said awkwardly

"Can i go with you?" Kara asked

Why didn't you just get one when we went to the coffee shop this morning?

"Of course you can. I'll be at the elevator" James said before walking off

"Okay"

"Bye, now" Mon-El said as James passed him before turning to Kara "Why would you take the elevator? It'd be so much quicker to just fly from floor to floor-"

"Mon-El!"

"'Mike'" he corrected

"Mike. Mike, I told you a million times, you are never to show your powers to anyone else. That's the whole point of the clothes and the glasses" Kara said while she led Mon-El to a small desk "This is your desk"

"Wait so you're saying that I can't use my powers to go through this giant pile of boring paper?"

"No, of course not" Kara scolded

Not fair!

"And you're telling me that you've never used your powers to do these menial tasks?"

Kara laughed a little before saying, "Never. No. Not once"

Mon-El noticed a little crinkle between her brows. He had seen it before too. It always appeared when she was lying.

"You know you get this little- this little crinkle right up there when you lie?" Mon-El noted

"I don't have a crinkle" Kara said, defending herself

"Yeah, you're crinkling right now"

"I don't have a crinkle" Kara objected once again

"You're crinkling at the moment" Mon-El said before being interrupted by another phone call

"It's your first phone call. Think you can handle it?" Kara asked as she glanced at the phone on the white desk beside her

"Yeah" he replied before bending over, bringing his face close to the phone "Hello, this is Catco. How may I help you?"

Kara reached over Mon-El's shoulder a picked up the phone, handing it to the Daxamite

Oh. This is going to take a while to get used to. Was the last thought Mon-El had before being whir winded into his work as Kara left to perform her own duties for the company


Mon-El had been there for almost an hour, trying as hard as he could doing the work that James had assigned for him, but it was just too much. The young blonde assistant, Eve, walked by and noticed that 'Mike' was having a bit of trouble.

"Are you okay Mike?" she asked as she stood in front of his desk

"Yeah, it's just you know. First day and the big boss has already given me all this work to do"

"Oh do you need help?"

"That would be great actually. Thank you" Mon-El said

"Oh, it's no problem. I don't want you working too much on your first day" Eve said as she picked up the biggest pile on his desk and carried it to her own.

Eve had only been gone for a minute or two before Kara stormed up to Mon-El's desk.

"What are you doing?"

"Eating these red tubes. They're amazing. Like pure joy in food form" Mon-El answered

"No, Mon-El, there's a time and a place for eating candy" Kara said, snatching the red tube out of his hand

"Yeah, and it's this time and this place" Mon-El replied defiantly before taking back his piece of candy

"No, this... This is your place of work" Kara scolded him

Jeez what a, what did they call it on this planet, a party pooper? Yes, that's what she is, a party pooper.

"So when James gives you a task, you should be the one to complete it. Not Miss Teschmacher." Kara said, clearly upset about the situation

"She wanted to please me. On Daxam, when a woman wishes to please a man-"

"Wherever you're going with that, just-just don't. We are not on Daxam. Thank Rao" Kara interrupted, taking a pause to catch her breath "Look, it-it's gonna be fine. It's still gonna be great" she said pushing the other alien's feet off the desk.

"Kara" an unknown female voice said. Kara turned to the direction of the voice and losing the attention of Mon-El.

The Daxamite only returned his attention to her when he had heard the dark haired woman that Kara was talking to, mention a gala. Mon-El immediately inserted himself into the conversation

"A gala? Is that like a party?" he asked curiously

"No. No, it's not" Kara said quickly

"You are literally my only friend in National City" Lena? was her name said "Most people wouldn't touch a Luthor with an ten foot pole. It would mean a lot to me if you were there"

"Of course I'll come. I'm honoured" Kara answered

"I love parties. Can I come too?" Mon-El asked, discreetly inviting himself

"No" Kara answered

Really Kara? Once again, the party pooper...

"Oh... Well, of course your friend can come" Lena said "What's your name?"

"Mike... of the inters"

"Well,, Mike of the inters, find yourself a nice suit and I'll see you there."

"Bye" Kara said as Lena excused herself and walked away

"We are going to a party!" Mon-El muttered excitedly over Kara's shoulder, waving his piece of candy "Yes!"

But Kara, being just slightly grumpy, snatched the candy out of his hand before she stomped off.


Over all, Mon-El's first day wasn't so bad, or at least it wasn't as disastrous as he thought it would be. Him and james' assistant really seemed to get along. Other than the amount of paperwork and the many times that he had to repeat the same sentence into a phone, he thought that working at Catco was kind of fun. He was actually looking forward to his next day at Catco.


The next day Mon-El knew the routine he must do to get ready for work. It didn't take him long to get ready and head off to Catco. When Mon-El arrived at Catco, he hadn't seen Kara so he decided it would simply be best to head to the office himself. It took him a while to figure out how the elevator worked and which corridors to walk through but he somehow made it to his desk.

He had been working for only an hour before James walked up to his desk.

"Mike I have something that I need you to do."

"Sue thing. What is it boss?" Mon-El asked looking up from the papers that were already laid out in front of him on his desk.

"I need you to bring these down to the marketing room" James replied as he placed some laminated pieces onto the pile of work, which was already overflowing on his desk.

"No problem boss" Mon-El replied "I'll get right on that"

"Thank you. If you need anything I'll be in my office"

"Understood" Mon-El responded as James retreated back to his office.

Not long after James left, Eve came running up to his desk

"Hi!" the blonde said eagerly

"Eve, hello... Is there something I can help you with?" the Daxamite asked politely

"Yes there is actually, I was hoping if I could talk to you"

"Yeah sure, what's up?"

"Oh, it's nothing I was just wondering if you could help me photocopy some files?"

"Of course, anything for a fellow employee" Mike said as he got out of his seat and followed the tiny blonde to the printing room.

The woman opened the door and the two of them walked in.

Where are the papers? Mon-El thought as he looked around the room confused. There were no papers to be seen, just machine which he assumed were the 'photocopiers'.

"Eve, where are the files?"

"There are none. I lied"

"Why?"

"Do you like me?" Eve blurted out and at first Mon-El thought he had heard her incorrectly.

"Excuse me?"

"Do you like me?"

"Yeah, I mean you're nice"

"No, that's not what I meant."

"What do you mean then?"

"Do you think I'm pretty?"

"Yeah, I mean look at you."

"Good. That's all I needed to hear" the blonde said before grabbing the Daxamite's face and smashing her lips to his.

What the heck? What is going on? Mon-El thought in shock. Surprised at how the situation escalated so quickly. But soon, he realized that he hadn't had sex in a long time due to him being stuck in the Well of Stars so he thought Why not? He deserved it right?

The pair, who hadn't separated since the kiss had now moved next to the photocopier, and Eve sat on the counter, straddling the man while they unbuttoned each others clothes.

"Mike, do you have protection?" Eve asked breathless

"You mean like a sword?" Mon-El said before the door swung wide open with Kara standing and staring in a mix of shock and disgust.

Holy Rao, I am going to get my ass kicked for this aren't I?

"What are you two doing? I mean, I know what you're doing. Just stop doing it!" Kara asked baffled by the sight she had just witnessed

"Kara, this is um... not what it looks like..." Eve said, trying to explain the situation as the two of them fixed their clothes

"This is the definition of something looking like what it looks like. Just go, Eve" Kara said.

Quickly, the assistant walked out of the tiny room, leaving Mon-El with his mentor, who did not sport a very approving look on her face.

How am I supposed to get myself out of this mess?

"I think I might have more powers on Earth than I realized" Mon-El said as he continued to fix his clothes. "Do you think that I can make any woman fall instantly for me?"

"No you can't" Kara said as she grabbed Mon-El and dragged him out of the room "What were you thinking?!"

"That I haven't had sex in 35 years."

"You can't do that here!" she scolded

"Are you sure? Because I've been watching this TV show about doctors, and I'm pretty sure it's okay."

"No, I am trying to help you fit in and you keep messing it up."

Wow, that hurt.

"Okay, I'm trying very hard to be Mike, okay? But it is not as easy as you make it sound, Kara. I'm used to doing my own thing."

"Well you don't do your own thing here. You do my thing" Kara ordered before she began to stomp away

"Um, okay. And if I don't want to do your thing?" Mon-El protested

"Then find another mentor" she replied harshly before walking off.

Oh, screw her. I can find another mentor no problem. Right?


Mon-El spent the next couple days looking for potential mentors but he didn't really know many people in National City. His only options were members of the DEO or bartenders that he'd met while drinking. Eventually, the Daxamite gave up on trying to find a new mentor and focused on the party that Kara's friend, Lena had invited him to.

Even though Kara was no longer his mentor. He was still invited right?

When Mon-El had mentioned to James that he needed to borrow a suit for the gala, his assistant must have overheard because wishing seconds of him exiting his boss' office, the blonde came rushing up to him waving a plastic card in her hand. She instructed him on how to use it and then he was off, shopping for the very first time. Honestly, it wasn't an experience he wanted to relive but he did manage to get a suit that was fairly comfortable.

When he arrived at the gala, it took him a moment to simply take it all in. Everyone wore fancy clothes, women in dresses and men in suits. They all seemed happy and content with a glass of some sparkling beverage in their hands as they chatted with others. He watched as a couple danced and it reminded him of his times on Daxam. His focus was suddenly diverted to a woman in a pale blue dress digging into some of the food off of a waiter's tray.

"What's your name beautiful?" he asked as he approached the woman as she turned around, only for him to see none other that his previous mentor "Oh, it's you... Um are you going to yell at me again?"

"I'm not-I'm not going to yell at you" was what Mon-El thought he heard her say, which wasn't easy to understand due to the amount of food stuffed in her mouth.

"What's wrong with your mouth?" he asked

"I'm not going to yell at you again" Kara repeated, her mouth no longer full of food "Where's the suit from?"

"Oh, you like it?"

"Yeah, it's nice"

"Yeah, Eve gave me her little, uh... Her little plastic rectangle to buy things."

"You used her credit card?" Kara questioned in shock, a tone of voice she used quite often Mon-El noticed

"You're gonna yell at me again" Mon-El said, sure that what he was saying was true

"I'm not going to yell at you"

They stood there in silence, listening to the music that the band was playing as couples danced around them

"Oh, I miss dancing. I used to dance a lot on Daxam" Mon-El mentioned

"Yeah, we danced on Krypton too"

Without even thinking, Mon-El placed his glass on the table in front of them and took Kara's hand

"Well, then..."

"Sorry hold on" Kara said, dropping the remains of her food on a napkin on the table before running onto the dance floor with the young handsome Daxamite.

They danced and danced, and for a moment it felt like the world had stopped spinning and it was just the two of them. They were happy, dancing the night away until an explosion hurled their attention to the sparks flying from nearby.

"Don't do anything" Kara ordered the Daxamite before running off, obviously going to change into something a little more suitable for a fight.

The men with the large guns began the threaten everyone at the party, causing nothing but destruction and chaos. Mon-El was about to leave when he saw one of the men use one of their evil weapons on Kara and a swarm of protectiveness came over him.

"Hey!" he said to one of the men. The man turned around and Mon-El threw a punch and hit him square in his face but it wasn't enough. The gun fired at him and a blast sent him crashing into the table behind him, shattering the glasses of beverages.

By the time the Daxamite got back to his feet, the fight had already ended. Mon-El looked at his suit, which now had a smoking hole right in the centre of it

Damn it. This cost Eve a fortune... Oh well.

Even though, Mon-El didn't mind showing off his chest, he also didn't think that walking around with a hole in his suit was normal on Earth so he decided to go back to the DEO and change and maybe take a break. He certainly needed it. When he got back to the DEO, Mon-El was exhausted. He collapsed onto his bed and laid there until his eyes started to droop and eventually close as he drifted off to sleep.


The next day, Mon-El woke up to Kara entering his room

"Good morning" she said as she turned on the light, blinding him for a mere two seconds.

"Am I late for work?" he asked

"Oh no, your were fired" she replied as if it was no big deal, which it wasn't, not to Mon-El anyway

Mon-El let out a long sigh as he changed his position on his bed "Yeah, I'm not sure it was my destiny to be an intern"

"Yeah, I"m not so sure either"

"So you're not mad at me?"

"I get the feeling that I'm always gonna be a little mad at you"

"Yeah, I get that feeling too" he said, his voice still groggy from just waking up

"When I was younger, I had no idea what I wanted to be here on Earth. I had a family to help me and guide me, but ultimately I had to make my own choices. And I was trying to impose those choices on you because when you landed, I was just so excited to have someone to take under my wing.. to look after. I never got to do that with my cousin" Kara said, pausing to take a breath before carrying on "But you are your own man. And your life here on Earth is going to be very different from mine, and that's fine. That's great."

"So does this mean that I don't need to get a job?" Mon-El asked

"You still need to get a job" she answered quickly

"Right"

Darn it. Well that's okay I guess.

"But, just pick something that you like. And I'll be here to help you, however you need me to be. That's what a real mentor does... I, uh, got you something" Kara said reaching into her coat pocket and pulling out a tiny panflet before placing it into Mon-El's hands. "It's a guide to National City"

"Hmm. Thank you Kara" Mon-El let out in wonder and she responded with a little noise of approval. Eager to learn all about National City, he opened up the panflet a flipped through the pages. "What's a strip club?"

Kara quickly wrenched the guide from his hands

"You know, let's just take that page out." Kara said as she ripped the page and gave the guide back to Mon-El as he laughed at the action.

Mon-El kind of wanted to just sit there, on his bed, just the two of them but Kara obviously had to go to work. After the Kryptonian left his room, Mon-El began to read through the guide that was just given to him. Yearning to start over and find a job in National City. The city that was just starting to feel like home.
